any suggestions? Like i'm looking for a long series that will keep my occupied for awhile mostly towards the comedy/drama genre. Something maybe similar to full metal panic fummofu. I don't want outrageous funny....like ebichu or whatever.. something more natural funny. ( Don't know if that make sense.)

If not a comedy. Something about drama that kinda makes you cry or makes you really sad. Kinda like "now and here then and there.. series" If anyone has watched that. Any good drama.

Hikaru No Go got all the things you are looking for.
And strangely Go is NOT a turn off, it's a load of fun. It's a long series too, currently at 75ep (finished) if I remember correctly.

Definitely a must-see.

The series your looking for is Great Teacher Onizuka. Here is a quick link to the review I gave it: http://www.boneyjellyfish.com/index.php?showID=151. If that doesn't fill you belly, then try the live action series for GTO. If you still want to see the anime version of the series, it is liscenced, but can still be found in popular programs like

Kazaa or kazaalite

A good series that you might like is Cowboy Bebop, which is licensed. If you want something to make you cry check out Saishuuheiki Kanojo, it is probably one of the sadest animes that i believe i have ever watched. Its also liscensed by the way. A good anime thats unlicensed that fits the comedy/drama genre is Maburaho. I've just recently started watching it myself and i've really enjoyed it.
